The difficulty is with the brakemen and these workmen will probably be joined by the en- gineers. The trouble has been brewing for several months, when the Cleveland and Pittsburg division agreed to discontinue running "double headers.' This has not been done, although several committees waited upon the general superintendent re- gently, he giving them no satisfaction. The men affected are about six thousand in num- ber The lines covered will include the Cleveland and Pittsburg, Pittsburg, Fort Wayne and Chicago, Pan Handle and the numerous other smaller branches controlled by the Pennsylvania company.

 ALBANY, Dec. 27-President Cleveland, Colonel Lamont and the members of the cabinet arrived here at 8 o'clock this morn ing to attend the funeral of Daniel Manning. On the noon train from New York came many distinguished men, and the city was filled with representative men from all sec tions. The remains lay in the residence of his son, James H. Manning, and during the morning were viewed by hundreds. About noon the President and his party entered the house. The President paused, as soon as a place was made for him, and for moment looked steadfastly down upon the face of the man who had proven such rare friend and counsellor, whose services to his party and to his country were loyal, true and devoted. The private funeral services took place at the house at 11:30. The pallbearers were: Charles J. Canada of New York, Sidney Webster of New York, Senator A. P. Cor man of Maryland, 0. N. Jordan of New York, Congressman Randall of Philadelphia, Manton Marble, the New York journalist, Judge Rufus W. Peckham of the court of ap- peals, Simon w. Rosendale, Erastus Corn ing, John H.

The Police CommIssfoners' Meeting
 --The Suspension of All Omcers Found Intoxicated While On Duty
 Supernumerary Wheeler Is Dis
 charged and Officer N1cGrath Re
 duced.
 The police commissioners last evening con side1ed the cases of John T. -McGrath and Supernumerary Wheeler. Officer McGrath's E case was first taken up. The charges against him were in substance that Rounds man Mcbride and Sergeant Driscoll had seen him in an intoxicated condition while on du- ty. The officer made a strong plea in his own behalf. He said that on the night in question, December IS, he was patrolling his beat on Dixwe1 avenue, and when near the corner of Gregory street was suddenly at tackled with cramps. He met a citizen friend whom he asked to prepare something for him to allay the pain, and he did, pro- curing some whiskey and ginger. He prom ised if he was retained that he would never offend again. Roundsman Mcbride and Sergeant Driscoll testified that McGrath was staggering drunk on the night in question
 For the defense Captain O. 'Brien of the board of education testified, as did Harry Leigh and John Shannon. who gave the drink to the officer. City Attorney Hugh Daley spoke 8 few words in the officers be- half, and the board reserved decision for ex. ecutive session. The officer was reduced from the lowest grade of the regular force to the lowest grade of the supernumerary force
 Supernumerary Wheeler was charged with having paid visits while on duty to 8 house which is said to be of unsavory character Roundsman Cook testified to the facts in the charge in detail. He said the officer on two or three occasions had talked with woman residing in the house and later on had spent an hour or more in the house at various times. Sergeant Bradley corroborated the roundsman's testimony. Wheeler had little to add in his own behalf He denied ever having spent over five minutes in the house at any one time and gave as his object for calling there at all that he had been request ed to call the inmates. Several of his friends, including MT. P. J. Kelly, testified in his behalf, but in executive session the board voted to dismiss him from the force
 Commissioner Shannon advocated that the officers of the department get two days 8 month instead of one, as is the practice now. He was of the opinion that it would be 8 good thing and should be tried for year. After remarks had been made by the com- missioners as to the practice in other cities the matter was laid over until the February meeting.
 In executive session a motion was made to have all officers hereafter proven guilty of being intoxicated while on duty summarilv suspended. According to the rules it was laid over for future consideration.

Boston tho Mecca For Burglars Just
 At Present.


 NEW YORK, Dec. 27.-The Evening World says: Referring to reports from Boston that that city is overrun by crooks from New York and that the police are powerless to cope with them, a well known crook of this city, Andy Coakley, informed reporter to-day that the stories were correct. He said that Boston was just now the paradise of burglars. There were only two detectives on the Boston police force who amounted to anything, namely Tom Gerraughty and Andy Houghton. The chief of detectives was regarded by the light fingered fraternity as dude. The speaker doubted if he dared go outdoors after dark. A Boston business man who was seen at the Fifth Avenue Ho- tel told the reporter that the police of that city seemed powerless to prevent the depre- dations of the thieves. He said the super intendent seemed unable to devise any rem edy and the chief of detectives was a fine looking fellow who was better enter tainer than anything else.
